ISLAMABAD - Minister for Information, Broadcasting and National Heritage Senator Pervaiz Rashid said on Tuesday that Pakistan Tehereek-i-Insaf (PTI) chief Imran Khan was negating democracy by not reposing trust in the Supreme Court and Parliament.

The minister, in a statement here said, "Imran Khan did not know that Jehangir Tareen was defeated by an independent candidate and not by the candidate of PML-N."

"If the mandate is fake than why Imran Khan is sitting in the government in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa," he added.
